Getting to the school /in the city (video) – Bus line  nº1  (every  10 minutes, 1€30 cent. ticket)

– There are many  cycle lanes in Cádiz, and this transport method is very  pleasant and economic.

– By car, it is very difficult to park for free, if you have any luck, the closest to the school is in front of the old cemetery, free in winter.

Accommodation (video)

– Where to live in the area ?

– Is it possible to stay with a host family ?

– Is it possible to share an apartment with the teachers or other language assistants ?

-It is quite expensive to live in the center of Cádiz, most of the available accommodation is shared, it takes between  250e and 350e approximately for a room in a shared accommodation in Cádiz from September to June.

– Cádiz is a tourist city, but also a student one, so renting is from September/ October to June.

– Some  trails to help you look for accommodation:

or even on Instagram on the  UCA pisos page.

-It is also possible to live in Puerto Real or San Fernando for an affordable  price, but you will have to take into account the trip, knowing that it is very difficult to park in Cádiz, there are buses, but the trip will be longer.

Contact with other language assistants and tutors/mentors

 

– It would be a good idea to provide the contact details  of the language assistants that have already worked in the  municipality/area and the links to  Facebook, Telegram / Whatsapp groups that they have.

(In the form, all you need is to specify the initials of the  assistants as well as the home country and the school year in which they have participated. The contact address  will be provided  privately, with the assistants’ consent).

– Specify if the previous assistants offer to tutor, help or support their  successors.

Previous experience with language assistants and their personal experience – Link to a webpage, an assistant’s blog  or a  school’s, a Youtube channel that introduces previous language assistants. It is interesting to deliver videos or projects  that advertise the school.
